Magical Fizzy Bath Salts

It's Magic! A Fun Fantasy-Themed Homemade Gift Idea

These fizzy bath salts are so easy to make, with only 4 ingredients.

Each magical potion below features a fantasy creature theme, such as Magical Unicorn, Fairy Dust, Dragon Breath or Mermaid Magic.

They make a surprisingly easy homemade gift idea, combining the fizzy fun of homemade bath bombs with the ease of a simple bath salt recipe.

Kids love to pretend that there is magic being activated as the bath powder hits the water with a burst of color and fizz while teens and above will appreciate the magical look and feel of these fun homemade bath salts.

Magic fizzing bath salts activate when sprinkled in the bath, providing a magic burst of fizz and color.

So... if you know someone big or small who loves mythical creatures like fairies, mermaids, dragons or unicorns, this may just be the next little unique homemade gift idea to add to your plans.

Although, I've included free printables for specific fantasy creatures, feel free to put your own spin on your creations.

For example, you could make a Harry Potter-themed bottle by making your own gift tag labels or by using the more generic label I created that simply says, "Magic Bath Salts: fizzing bath potion."

Alright, let's get started!

Free Printable Gift Tag Labels:

The featured free printable labels are available as .pdf documents. Simply click on the link in the instructions and you'll get a new window with the corresponding printable gift tags.

The tags are all 2 inches in size, so they can easily be punched with this paper punch or they can be cut out with scissors.

To use them, put the label and instructions together and punch an 1/8" hole in the top. Attach them both to ribbon or craft cord and then to your gift. The recipient can lift the top tag to reveal the instructions.
